Followed the description for the " Log Entry Type " in the CXL spec rev 3.1 Table 8-210.
DDR5 ECS Control Feature Readable Attributes and Table 8-211. DDR5 ECS Control Feature
Writable Attributes. This was written as " Common DDR5 ECS Log Capabilities " though actually returns
the status of the log_entry_type. 

Common DDR5 ECS Log Capabilities
• Bits[1:0]: Log Entry Type: The log entry type of how the ECS log is
reported. The entry type is defined commonly for all memory media FRUs
within the device.
— 00b = Per DRAM
— 01b = Per Memory Media FRU
— All other encodings are reserved
• Bits[7:2]: Reserved.

I will update to 0 and 1.

This was written as " Common DDR5 ECS Log Capabilities " in the CXL spec rev 3.1
Table 8-210. DDR5 ECS Control Feature Readable Attributes, though actually returns
the status of the log_entry_type. I will remove these extra log type attributes.

I will remove redundant files.

I will update. Returns error for any other value set than '1'.

This is the attribute_group's is_visible() callback  for controlling the visibility
of the attributes based on whether attribute is added or not by the parent driver.
Yes.  Writable only by the root.
